GEORGIA: Oh, Brother

As ranking aide and favorite brother of Georgia's Governor Marvin Griffin and as mayor of their home town of
Bainbridge (pop. 7,562), cigar-chomping, lapel-grabbing Robert Alwyn
("Cheney") Griffin, 43, is at ease in almost any Georgia setting, from
columned plantation to smoke-heavy hotel room. But last week Cheney
Griffin suddenly discovered himself in a setting that made him ill at
ease. Indicted on charges of accepting a $1,500 political bribe, Cheney
taxied down to Atlanta's Fulton County jail, posted $2.500 bond, then
skipped off to await his trial next month.
